I did not have the option of the DATE 'field;' and the pop-up calendar 'WIDGET'

Here is how you add it:

1. Go to http://drupal.org

2. Download the modules:
Calendar: http://drupal.org/project/calendar
Date: http://drupal.org/project/date

3. Now go into 'modules' >> click on "install new modules" (a little down on the left hand side)

4. install both your downloaded files

5. Activate the newly added modules.

6. Save changes and you should have the date and calendar option appear.

Good Luck

Hey, not to discourage wiki participation but saying: go download a module is not really a tutorial. We learned how to install modules in the first session and—furthermore—the first CV walkthrough specifically says that you will need to download the date module. More detail than this is expected! – Greg
